My last long run

ostomy running run exercise training half marathon race stephanie hughes stolen colon crohn's disease ulcerative colitis inflammatory bowel disease ibd blogI have almost completed my training for my third half-marathon coming up in April. I have at least made it through the hardest part of the training. I finished up with 11.15 miles running in the windy, rainy, freezing cold. I may have considered going a little further, but the weather prompted me to keep it shorter. Which is fine, considering that is longer than I have ever run in training before my other two halfs. I will now taper down a little for the next two weeks before the race. I’m actually pretty excited about this race. I have trained better than I did for the previous ones and I think this might be a good opportunity for me to PR. I’m at least hoping to break the 2:30 mark, which barring any injuries or something like that, I think I’m in pretty good shape to do.
I shot a quick video this morning as I was running, so I thought I’d share a little of my training with you! (The audio got a little messed up at the end… not exactly sure why, but oh well.)
